You should not need to pass platform to the macro, as it is already
available as a shell variable.
ok, fixed.
dnl Test for STLport 5.0 and define STLPORT_LIBS and STLPORT_CFLAGS.

The AM_* namespace is reserved for automake. You should not reuse that
prefix, but invent one more appropriate for your package; perhaps
STL_CHECK_STLPORT.
ok (not fixed yet, it's a minor problem)

Gross. Have you considered using libtool? And even if you don't use
libtool, hard-coding platforms like this is not very portable, and
severely limits the utility of your macro.
I don't want to use libtool. libtool is slow, checks unneeded things (at
least for me). In addition, my project is intended to be used in a small
number of platform (mainly windows, linux, bsd, solaris (and mac os x,
which almost a bsd)).

This only finds a static library, but cygwin supports shared libraries
(and in your case, you probably want to prefer the shared version).
I agree, but i've not succeeded in having the stlport dll with mingw. I
have files ending with .dll.a. I don't know if they are shared lib or not.
dnl We check the headers, then the library.

Here's where your caching occurs. Your nested invocation is remembering
the results of the outer invocation, because AC_CHECK_* is given the same
parameters between the two runs. I'm not sure how I would improve things,
but you are right that calling your current macro in a nested manner runs
afoul of caching rules.
Ok. I've tried that check :
have_stlport_in_usr="no"
AM_CHECK_STLPORT(
[/usr],
[have_stlport_in_usr="yes"],
[])
if test "x${have_stlport_in_usr} = "xno" ; then
AM_CHECK_STLPORT(
[/usr/local],
[],
[AC_MSG_ERROR("STLport is needed !")])
fi
But I have that error during the execution of configure:
checking stl/config/user_config.h usability... no
checking stl/config/user_config.h presence... no
checking for stl/config/user_config.h... no
configure: WARNING: STLport headers not in /usr/include/stlport
